Hong Kong Internship

U.S. Is $ 1,000 a month to live in Hong Kong or Taiwan?

I'm thinking about an internship in Hong Kong or Taiwan, the jobs are good, but only pay the average U.S. $ 1,000 per month. Is this enough to live? I'll have to pay rent, buy food, etc. I have problems to believe that this is enough. Does anyone know? I was told this is what you earn a graduate business in those countries, is that correct?

U.S. $ 1000 months is approx. HK $ 7,800 and NT $ 32,000. For this type of quantity, you need to skimp a little and the budget for your lifestyle with wisdom. For rent wise, whoa, This is the hardest part of Taiwan as the rent is high and even higher in Hong Kong. For groceries cunning, for supermarkets and Welcome, which is available at both locations, is a good place to buy food and markets and supply stores downtown areas on the main parts of both. Yes, if you is a bit wasteful, then this will never be enough. If you can live the lifestyle budget, then this may be enough, or find other jobs. As soon as to graduate biz, if you just leave their schools after graduation, yes, it is likely that the rate. But it can not sustain for long, this wage is relatively low if you want to stay for long moderate, that's why I always want to promote or seek a higher position, for example. manager or even much higher than this. I hope my answer will help you and think twice before taking any final decision.
